Abstract: Background and Objective: Compared to warfarin, the novel oral anticoagulant rivaroxaban has uncomplicated dosing with no need for INR monitoring and fewer drug and food interactions, which have been reported to improve adherence to treatment. The objectives were to determine INR control for patients on warfarin and compare warfarin and rivaroxaban with respect to treatment adherence, incidence and severity of bleeding and drug–drug interactions (DDIs).
